School Reviews麻豆果冻传媒>2 5/3/2011Although there are some benefits to East Rutherford High School such as the ROPE award there are more negatives to this school than anything. For one, almost every staff in this school, with the exception of Shawn Parker and Melisa Greene, pick favorites in students. Leaving the students who aren't picked as a favorite hanging. My time at East Rutherford was filled with hate because the teachers did not seem to care about the students who did not have a personal relationship with the teachers. Also in my time there the students who were deemed a favorite got away with a lot. I was told that last year a young lady who cheated throughout high school was given many scholarships. A lot of the senior class was outraged. Allowing such a dishonest girl get away with cheating for so long and then to give her scholarships that someone else definitely deserved. I have a lot more negatives I could say about this school, but frankly I'm tired of thinking back on how bad of a school East High really is. They need to work on their staff. I will most definitely not be allowing my children to attend this schoolReview East Rutherford High School. Reviews should be a few sentences in length. Please include any comments on:
